The only person I want to eat a crap load of crow is Mark Howard. He’s the obnoxious host on the Wake Up Zone here in Nashville. He and Jimmy spoon every Friday and hearing him make fun of the notion is nauseating.

Gotta work on VD parade floats in a minute, but just a reminder that tomorrow, if you have nothing else going, try and make it to your local parade. The city goes to a lot of trouble to put this on and the Veterans will appreciate it. Thanks. Go Vets, Go Vols, Go Gruden.

A 20 year investment is tough for me to walk away from.

On Gruden, things are still locked down on the AD front, but I was told again yesterday the only thing he knew was it is not Gruden and he has no other names. Either it's still only known by the top three or so people, or everyone in the department has been threatened not to leak. Things are definitely being run very different from the last time.

Everything else I've heard is similar to what others have reported, and it varies wildly. One thing I'm confident in is if anyone, at this moment, says they've heard anything concrete from the AD other than "it's not Gruden," that person is either a liar or John Currie.

Beav tweeting early this morning ... calling out DP again! Love it

You guys are being too hard on Deerpark by saying he doesn’t know anything. I know for a fact that he can expertly measure a foot for shoe size and has memorized the fall catalog front and back.

You know, DP’s friend posted that we’d be shocked if we knew what he was doing now. Shows salesman?

agreed, atleast Chad on the midday 180 sounds like he is all for Gruden.

I have been doing a lot more digging on the airplane rumor. I have actually created a spreadsheet tracking the 4 Haslam planes in November and the last part of October:

Haslam Planes.xlsx - Google Drive

Again, due to the BARR, it is not as easy to track private planes if the owners request that info not be shared. So what you have here is just where plane spotters and people who listen to ATC broadcasts add their data to a couple of websites. It is FAR from comprehensive. This data does prove a plane WAS somewhere with a fairly high degree of accuracy (someone could misreport the N number) but it doesn't mean that is the only place that plane went. In the cases where you see NONE on my spreadsheet, it just means no one reported the plane, not that it didn't go anywhere.

If you don't want to follow the link, in my opinion, I don't see anything that proves or even suggests that Gruden is using one of the Haslam planes. Honestly, I am ready to call that rumor false.

There are a few interesting flights on there....Fayetteville, AR on 11/8 for one, but who knows if it means anything.

Sorry about that, I should have actually put the cities in. For me, an airport code is just as good as a city name, but that's certainly not the case for most people. When typing a post about tail numbers (basically the same thing as a car license plate, they are unique to an individual plane) and ATC (Air Traffic Control) the airport codes just sort of flowed out there.

To save you the time of looking at the flight tracks that were posted....there is not a ton to see there. Some flights that are possibly going to Tampa, but unconfirmed, several out or into airports in the Knoxville and Cleveland areas, which would not be unusual for a plane owned by Pilot/FJ. Also some flights in the New York City area.

To sum up....no definite Gruden connection based on flight data available, but also impossible to eliminate the rumor that he is using a Haslam plane or planes.

Haslems' aren't the only ones with aircraft that the AD uses. Atlanta Vol has mentioned in the past that he lends his corporate aircraft to the AD for their use.

I posted this last night. No one really seemed to notice (I know, I am nobody), but thought I would post again. Kept my Grudometer reving high!

Quote from JAV on TOS yesterday in conversation regarding Gruden using Haslems plane:

"Not much to add. It's serious with JG this time and the odds are way better than last. Lots of optimism with people who are trying. I'll still believe it when I see it."

SOON can't get here soon enough!

Go Vols! Will ve at Mizzou tomorrow night rooting for the players!

Kesling?

Probably the worst call of a hail mary in college football history.

No doubt. Was at the game w/ Georgia friends - couldn't wait to hear it. Even my buddies we went to game with were laughing at him. Like really? That's what you came up with for a Hail Mary to beat UGA?

I agree 100%, this data only relates to the 4 planes listed earlier in the thread. If anyone has other N numbers for other planes...I am happy to add them.

Yea I was going to say, the Haslam plane number I found yesterday has been requested to not be publicly tracked. So no info for it.
